    How to recover (clone) DB from RAC+ASM

    Hi everybody,
    i need help how to clone (recover) our prod database to another server from disk (tape). Our prod database is in RAC with ASM and I need to clone it to different server without ASM and RAC. Everything is Win2003 Srv.
    I do it this way:

    1. On prod server i make backup running this script in RMAN
    configure channel device type 'SBT_TAPE' parms'SBT_LIBRARY=oracle.disksbt,ENV=(BACKUP_DIR=e:\backup)';

    RUN {
    backup device type SBT_TAPE database tag zal20081129;
    SQL 'alter system archive log current';
    backup device type SBT_TAPE archivelog ALL tag zal20081129;
    }

    2. I prepared clon instance on another server (The same Oracle version) and start it to nomount mode.

    3. I copied the backup from prod server to clon server to exactly the same path. (e:\backup)

    4. On clon server i connect to RMAN
    set ORACLE_SID=clon
    rman
    connect target /

    set DBID 3079749916 - that is DBID from our prod DB

    startup nomount;

    run {
    allocate CHANNEL CTAPE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARMS'SBT_LIBRARY=oracle.disksbt,ENV=(BACKUP_DIR=e:\backup)';
    allocate channel CDISK DEVICE TYPE DISK;
    restore controlfile from 'e:\backup\name_of_backup_file'; -this restore control file correctly
    }

    alter database mount;

    run {
    Set newname for datafile 1 to 'e:\oradata\CLON\system.272.668509367';
    Set newname for datafile 2 to 'e:\oradata\CLON\undotbs1.273.668509387';
    Set newname for datafile 3 to 'e:\oradata\CLON\sysaux.263.668509393';
    Set newname for datafile 4 to 'e:\oradata\CLON\ifsapp_archive_data.298.668509401';
    Set newname for datafile 5 to 'e:\oradata\CLON\ifsapp_archive_index.258.668509401';

    restore database;

    switch datafile all;

    recover database;
    }

    But i got this error
    .....
    ....
    filename=E:\ORADATA\AGOST\IFSAPP_INDEX.299.668510843
    datafile 16 switched to datafile copy
    input datafile copy recid=84 stamp=672939884 filename=E:\ORADATA\AGOST\IFSAPP_DATA.300.668510859
    datafile 17 switched to datafile copy
    input datafile copy recid=85 stamp=672939884 filename=E:\ORADATA\AGOST\IFSAPP_DATA.301.668510865

    Starting recover at 08-DEC-08
    using channel ORA_DISK_1
    using channel ORA_SBT_TAPE_1

    starting media recovery

    Oracle Error:
    ORA-01547: warning: RECOVER succeeded but OPEN RESETLOGS would get error below
    ORA-01194: file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent
    ORA-01110: data file 1: 'E:\ORADATA\AGOST\SYSTEM.272.668509367'

    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
    RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
    RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 12/08/2008 15:45:14
    RMAN-06053: unable to perform media recovery because of missing log
    RMAN-06025: no backup of log thread 1 seq 227 lowscn 800414116 found to restore


    Shall i set any SET UNTIL clause???? or what is wrong. Why Oracle doesnt recover just to the point of the backup saved in e:\backup?
    please help

    When restoring from a hot backup recovery is always needed meaning, logs generated until the end of the backup have to be available for recovery.

    Thanks for you answer,
    but I do have the archived logs in my backup. The whole backup has this structure:
    filenames:
    1. 2qk18tcm_1_1 40GB = datafiles
    2. 2rk193jm_1_1 15MB = controlfiles, spfile
    3. 2sk193kn_1_1 5GB = archived logs
    so the recovery process should use the archived logs. Even log from the backup shows, that the file is in the backup.

    Part of the backup log:
    ...
    input archive log thread=1 sequence=225 recid=422 stamp=672393041
    input archive log thread=1 sequence=226 recid=424 stamp=672409469
    input archive log thread=1 sequence=227 recid=426 stamp=672431129
    input archive log thread=1 sequence=228 recid=427 stamp=672435840
    input archive log thread=1 sequence=229 recid=430 stamp=672435856
    ...

    So i dont know whats wrong?
